Next step on my job hunt... Automated coding interview... All the surveillance bullshit. Share your whole screen, camera and mic, we will record every word. Don't look anything up, no AI.

Fine.. Can do, you surveillance state arseholes... So I get to coding. Coding challenge stuff. Easy enough. Took me ten minutes to get into the groove. Then I made it in optimal big O. Some smaller stupid mistakes. Not incorrect.

But I have a toddler. Anyway, turns out I sing to myself when I am focusing. So, when they open. The video, they will find the applicant solve their test while singing:

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I want to know what you are,
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky...

Guess next time I also should try not to look like a psychopath... Let's see I'd someone will bring it up.

    !the weirdest thing I've heard. /* I don't remember what it was, but I'm sure there was something weirder. */ Anyway, think of this in another way - maybe they'll figure out it's for the toddler, maybe they'll think you just like the 'Dead Space' series... or, maybe they'll think you did your job / task well, so who cares what helped you deliver it?

    /* Yes, would definitely be nice if all had that approach. */

    looking like a psychopath might actually be a selling pitch at this rate. You'll have culture fit

    @jestdotty was an international interview... They will just be like: "damn, those foreigners are weird."

    Work on your psycho look with varying degrees:
    Level 1: Killing hobos
    Level 2: Killing hookers
    Level 3: Killing all employees
